A projectile is fired vertically upward with an initial velocity of 150 m/sec from a point 2 m above the ground. Ifs meters is the height of the projectile above the ground t seconds after being fired, under the assumption that the only force acting on it is acceleration due to gravity, how high above the ground (in meters) will the projectile go?
